Poor sleep puts you at risk for weight gain, diabetes and worsening ADHD (especially in children).

These negative health effects occur with chronic poor sleep. Chronic poor sleep is insufficient sleep, excessive sleep or broken sleep, occurring four or more nights per week, for more than one month.

Although you may not feel well from one or two bad nights of sleep, the effects on your body and overall health mentioned in this video refer to chronic sleep loss.

Short-term sleep loss has it’s own negative consequences, particularly on your memory. I discuss this problem in the video on What Happens To Your Mind When You Don’t Sleep. You can view it here: • What Happens To Your Mind if You Don'...

I also discuss how sleep loss affects your appetite hormones Leptin and Ghrelin. This is why you get the munchies late at night when you don’t sleep well.

Here are the studies I refer to in the video.
Leproult R, Copinschi G, Buxton O, Van Cauter E: Sleep loss results in an elevation of cortisol levels the next evening. Sleep 1997; 20(10):865-870.

Tamakoshi A; Ohno Y: Self-reported sleep duration as a predictor of all cause mortality: results from the JACC study, Japan. Sleep 2004; 27(1):51-54.

Paavonen EJ, Räikkönen K, Lahti J et. al: Short Sleep Duration and Behavioral Symptoms of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder in Healthy 7- to 8-Year-Old Children. Pediatrics 2009; 123(5): e857-e864.\n
